Default mics for classical guitar

I've used the MK012s for ORTF live recordings, with more-than-decent
results. I suggest getting a pair of the hypercardioid capsules;
they're actually closer to real cardioid than the "cardioid" ones.

If you use the MK012s in omni, point them up at the ceiling; the off-
axis response is reasonably flat, while the on-axis response is
bright.

Peace,
Paul
